Mr. Touhig

Data on staffing levels in the Civil Service is collected by the Cabinet Office and published in the Civil Service Statistics. A copy of the Civil Service Statistics, 2002 is available in the Library, and at www.civil-service.gsi.gov.uk/statistics. The 2003 edition will be published in summer 2004.

The Wales Office Departmental Report 2003 (Cm 5928) provides data on staff numbers for the Wales Office for year 2002–03. Tables 5.7 and 5.8 of this publication show staff numbers with disabilities. A copy of the Wales Office Departmental Report 2003 can be obtained from the Library of the House.

Information on numbers of staff employed by age group is not available and could be obtained only at disproportionate cost.
